   No matter how valid her points are, the tone is inexcusable in a public-facing blog, especially when discussing customer behavior. I recognize the strong points of Oracle's offerings, but let's not pretend that there is not compet

   It bums me out that this is so complicated for you. It also bums me out that I can't think of anything I could do to help you. I hope things work out.

   Yup. Three major lines (BMT Nassau, IND Sixth Ave, IND Eighth Ave) converge in Jamaica, where it's only a few minutes' walk to transfer to the AirTrain to JFK. I've never had a problem getting to/from JFK via train, but

   I seem to recall there being talk about Sequel Pro adding support for Postgres a while back. Anyone know if that's still on the table?

   I'll give a +1 to Go in Action (Manning)[1]; the MEAP has improved quite a bit over the last couple of months, particularly with the rewrite of the chapter about types. [1] http://manning.com/ketelsen/

    re "Astros' staff brought this on themselves": A predictable outcome doesn't make it an acceptable outcome. They should have taken security more seriously, but that doesn't in any way excuse the Cardinals for exploi

    Just because it's sports doesn't make it any less illegal.

    It'll be very interesting to see how the Commissioner's Office responds to the FBI's findings. While I don't believe espionage is new to MLB, this is the first case of it reaching the public (and federal government) that

    POST is used to create resources that don't already have identifiers. So, if you're repeatedly submitting that form, your request is creating distinct resources on the other end. If the resource already exists -- if it has an iden

    I think spammy text messages have become a significant issue for consumers in the US -- at least on T-Mobile (my carrier). Around the holidays, I was getting half a dozen obviously junk/spammy/malicious text messages with links to

    iOS give the user the ability to block a phone number, which I usually do when an unknown number calls. Like a commenter above, my process is reject and google, with the last step almost always being to block the number. I don't know h

    I don't see it as bait-and-switch, either. Uber makes it clear when the ride you're considering will be subject to surge pricing, and it's very easy to abandon the reservation at that stage. I can't think of a time (in N

    Don't forget about UberKitten, or whatever it was called. I wish they'd bring back kitten delivery.

    One key differentiator is the limited set of languages Bond currently supports: "By design Bond is language and platform independent and is currently supported for C++, C#, and Python on Linux, OS X and Windows." Versus Thrift: &q
